_ Scientists theorize that the special ability of komodo dragons help them elude predators. _ Scientists verified that baby komodo dragons have homogeneous genes if they don’t have fathers, which leads to genetic problems. _ Female komodo dragons can have babies without their male counterparts. _ People thought that the story publicized in the gazette about the komodo dragons was fictitious. Rewrite the false statements to make them true. Part A: Mark each statement T for true or F for false. Scientists think that this may be how the lizards took over all of the islands in that area. Once again there is a surplus of lizards on one island. Over time, the genes within the population diverge. When she comes ashore, she can reproduce by herself. So the surviving female can plunge into the ocean and swim to another island. Luckily, Komodo dragons are vigorous swimmers.
However, as long as one female eludes death, she can prolong the survival of the species. If a volcano erupts, lava can kill all of the komodo dragons on an island. Scientists theorize that Komodo dragons developed the ability because it helps the species fend off extinction. Also, they are devoid of any genetic problems. However, scientists verified that when Komodo babies are born, their genes aren’t the exact same genes as their mother.
This makes it necessary for the male to be involved. Over time, the weakened species dies out completely. If the genes are homogeneous, the babies are weaker and have genetic problems. For example, adult males and females carry different genes needed to make an embryo. In most cases, there are many things that can obstruct this type of reproduction. This contradicts what scientists know about how most animals have babies. It was discovered that female komodo dragons can have babies without the help of their male counterparts. After the scientists publicized their discovery, many people thought it was fictitious.īut it was true. However, it had never been around a male lizard in its entire life. Komodo dragons are giant lizards that grow up to two and a half meters long.
Scientists at a zoo made a discovery about komodo dragons. Once, a British gazette had an unusual story.
